async-attributes 1.0.0

Experimental language-level polyfills for Async Rust.
Documentation
//! Experimental language-level polyfills for Async Rust.
//!
//! # Examples
//!
//! ```
//! #[async_attributes::main]
//! async fn main() {
//!     println!("Hello, world!");
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! # About
//!
//! Async Rust is a work in progress. The language has enabled us to do some
//! fantastic things, but not everything is figured out yet. This crate exists
//! to polyfill language-level support for async idioms before they can be part
//! of the language.
//!
//! A great example of this is `async fn main`, which we first introduced as
//! part of the [`runtime`](https://docs.rs/runtime/0.3.0-alpha.7/runtime/) crate.
//! Its premise is that if `async fn` is required for every `await` call, it
//! makes sense to apply that even to `fn main`. Unfortunately this would
//! require compiler support to enable, so we've provided an experimental
//! polyfill for it in the mean time.
//!
//! # Why isn't this crate part of async-std?
//!
//! We want to make sure `async-std`'s surface area is stable, and only includes
//! things that would make sense to be part of "an async version of std".
//! Language level support is really important, but _not_ part of the standard
//! library.
//!
//! This has some distinct benefits: in particular it allows us to
//! version both crates at a different pace. And as features are added to the
//! language (or we decide they weren't a great idea after all), we can
//! incrementally shrink the surface area of this crate.
//!
//! The other big benefit is that it allows libraries to depend on `async-std`
//! without needing to pull in the rather heavy `syn`, `quote`, and
//! `proc-macro2` crates. This should help keep compilation times snappy for
//! everyone.
